poors of reddit upset at the notion that maybe squeezing all the money from billionaires 
isn't actually a sound economic policy

Here's a funny bit where this r-slur things his bonus is taxed at a different (higher) rate (it's not, he's just r-slurred, it's withheld at a different rate, but at 25% not 45%)
R-slur trots out the "Billionaires don't pay any taxes" argument again, but this time someone points out how r-slurred he is
And finally, an r-slur who COMPLETELY misses the point of the simplistic meme and doubles down when it's explained to him (notice how the rational poster has like no votes)

Ok, let's include cap gains tax. How much do you think poor people are spending on cap gains every year in comparison to wealthy people? Don't you think that'll just make the percentage of contribution even more lopsided?

As a fraction of my consumption I (relatively high income, relatively low wealth) am definitely paying a greater share than ultra wealthy people.
